Street food Laksa — the authentic version
The best Laksa I've ever had came from a street stall, not a restaurant. The sweet-savoury balance intensity was completely different — more direct and uncompromised. coconut cream was used without hesitation, the way it should be.
Malaysian cuisine reflects the Malay, Chinese, Indian, and indigenous Orang Asli traditions of a multicultural society. The a Penang hawker stall setting meant eating standing up or on a low stool, which is how this food is supposed to be encountered. Milo was sold right next to it. Don't wait to find the 'right' restaurant. Find the street version first.
